They took pretty much everything that made the previous version good and either removed it or filled it with glitches somehow. Very very much a let down. If you want to play Duels of the Planeswalkers then I recommend you buy the 2014 version.

After spending a lot of time playing Magic 2014, both the story mode and online with freinds I've ended up feeling rather betrayed it's sucessor. Specifically I dislike the way decks and the aqquisition of new cards has been handled. After a brief tutorial you are thrown to a very large list of pre-assembled decks, all looking suitably cool with their flavour names and artwork, however expect to enjoy only one of these for a very large amount of play because that is all you may use with the standard edition. No information is given on any of the decks apart from their colours and it is not made clear that the decision you make here is final with no going back to sample the others. To me this feels like a gentle shove in the direction of the £4 a pop dlc packs offering all the cards instantly. After this at the end of each sucessful duel you will be given a booster pack relating to the plane you are currently on, a nice idea that gives you options for customisation that may not have been so prelavent in previous editions. This system is flawed however, I found on my playthrough the packs to be glitchy, and several times I was re-issued the same pack. The departure of Two Headed Giant, a mode me and freinds enjoyed significantly seems to seal the deal for me. I can't recommend this game particularly, I'd rather just go back to 2014 and play Echanter's Arsenal without having to throw Wizards any more money than I already have...

Terrifying deck change design for multiplay and the cards are not fun.Two headed giant mode out was critical. I regret i bought this game although i played all series since planes walker andi still play magic 2014

Advantages:- you can finally build your own deck, freely without any limitations (other than cards available in game)

Disadvantages:- slow and unresponsive menu - you have to click the same button multiple times or wait 5 seconds for stupid animation to finish- interface bugs - sometimes when asked to make a choice you are unable to do this (e.g. you are asked to choose a card from graveyard but you cannot look into the graveyard) - the only solution is to concede a duel- game play bugs such as AI taping one swamp to pay "one black mana + X any mana" with X = 1- AI is taking a lot of time to make the choice (as in the previous editions)- the game gets boring after you unlock all the cards by playing campaign- only standard games - no archenemy, no planechase, no two headed giant- no challenge puzzles- some cards cannot be unlocked in the campaign, but have to be bought via micro transactions- a lot of cards implemented in the game are not available to the player, but are used by AI

Overall the game is very disappointing and unless you are huge MTG fan you shouldn't waste your money on it. It's based on the same engine as previous editions, so the only work they have actually done was adding a deck building tool and implemented new cards.

Firstly I've been playing this game since revised and this is the 6th computer version I've played. So my basic opionions on it.

1. There is no 2 headed giant. A major drawback for some. I miss it, but I can live without it.2. Terrible starting decks. It's a deleberate game push towards teaching deck tweeking. And it does lend to the true beginners experiance of not having any cards. 3. The automatic funtions as always have to be turned of. I can declaire my own attackers thank you, and I'll choose when I'm done with a stage. I know they use this for beginners, but it's truely as always anoying and useless. Even beginners need to learn how to manage games stages.4. The card pool of unlockable cards is one of the biggest of all the electronic versions. Still not enough cards for my taste. But a nice big unlockable pool. And don't pay to unlock the cards, just play for them. Easy enough to get everything but the battle packs.5. Foils again?! Why? Worthless online; you can't trade them for upmarket value like in real face to face and as always they make it VERY difficult to see which card is which on screen. 6. Multiplayer is a bit sparce currently. It may pick up, I suspect though with people still playing 2012 on here, 2013 on here, and 2014 on here; just massively hampers the number of players. And to top that with no 2headed giant available as of yet...7. There are no stupid slots you have to pay to unlock! WOOP!

Now you take all that.. and it is still a good version of magic online. Well worth buying and playing. If you love deck crafting this is the best version available. Could use a larger card pool, but at least they are giving you a great lake to play in rather than the typical large pond the hand you. I just wish they'd give us the ocean.

I have to preface this review with a couple of facts. This is my first negative review of a steam product. I love MTG and have been playing since the 90s with a couple of breaks in between. So when I say this game is garbage I'm not just being a hater. At the core when you are playing a match it is just like all the other games in the series. It is the card gathering mechanics, menus, and lack of game modes that hurts this version of Duels. Unlike previous games in the Planeswalker series you don't start the game with a selection of decks to move between and maybe discover new play styles. You are locked into one deck that you have to pick off it's NAME, thats right name and color no card preview. You are now stuck with that and must use it to beat matches and earn booster packs. On the plus side you do have the ability to fully customize your decks which is awesome. The down side to that is that the card selection is kinda meh. Also being a game that is focused on dual colored cards it has barely any and the card focus is totally on sets that had plenty of them. You can buy booster packs with micreotransactions or just unlock all the cards in a certain set. Personally I don't like microtransactions of that nature but whatever, what really burns it is that the cards are lackluster on a whole. I spent about 10 hours grinding out my black deck and once I had it finished I didn't want to play anymore. Oh almost forgot no Two-Headed Giant (2v2 MP) or Archenemy(3v1 uber deck)! Draft mode is chill but I dig team battles way more. Go play real life MTG or Hearthstone.

Dear Wizards of the Coast. You seriously need to step your game up and create a DTCG (Digital Trading Card Game) that actually competes with other DTCG's currently and upcoming out there. You have failed to create a singular platform (Magic Online is a piece of garbage) where all MGTO fans can gather and play each other for fun and competitivly. Look at Infinity Wars, HEX, hell even Hearthstone.... How dense can ya'll be?

I have been wanting to play a singular online platform of MGTO on my desktop since I was in middleschool, I am now 26... I am still waiting for ya'll to get your act together and create an actually stable, graphicle, and appealing online game. You have failed to do so and have given us this. Sure it's good looking and stable. But there is still tons to be desired to even be as competent as the other DTCG who have far less funding yet FAR surpass you. This shouldn't HAPPEN! I have always loved and dedicated a lot of time on MGTO but for some odd reason even though you're the big one in the room you FAIL at giving what your fans and dedicated players want.

If you guys stopped with this whole "Release" a new title every year which are limited in their cards that fractures your player base and created a single downloadable client that we all can download and all be able to play with a cash shop and all then I'd be happy. I want to spend my money on your DTCG game but at your current state and your competition my money goes to them instead of you.

Don't get me wrong I enjoyed playing this game but coming from playing other competing DTCG's you have left massive holes to be desired and to improve upon. Stop releasing new 'games' every year. Focus on the engine and release card collections like the rest of the herd. No microtransactions on a game that will be dead next year. I dont want to start my collection from scratch every year!

Hopefully you get it right the next time but my expectations will always be low.

-Campaign starts you with awful decks-Still has hilariously clunky menus after 4 years of the game (How did they not listen to the players on that one?)-No rewards/progress for losing games that last 10-25 minutes = wasted efforts and unfortunate for people without a lot of time or people who are new to the game.-It feels mandatory to restart the duel vs. the computer if you don't draw a perfect hand- No 2 Headed Giant (2v2) This was one of my favorite coop experiences with a friend of mine.

Short Version: Do not buy this game. If you want to play Magic at your computer without investing in MTGO, buy DOTP 2014 instead.

Quite frankly WOTC isnt known for quality control of digital products, but this might actually be the worst designed product with their name on it that I've seen (and I played MTG Tactics and MTG Battlegrounds). I finally decided to try this version out, despite all of the negative things I've heard about it. Surprisingly though, its somehow worse than I expected.

The microtransactions arent the real problem here. Certainly they are there, and that is slightly annoying given that the point of the DOTP franchise is to play MTG without that aspect of the card game. However as a paper MTG player I'm certainly used to that.

No, the real problem here is that the game that you are paying for is garbage. First of all, its one of the most abysmal PC ports I've seen in awhile. Instead of a menu screen, you get a series of icons that you scroll through one at a time until you find the one you were trying to get to. Even in game, the mouse controls are strangely less smooth and not as responsive as in 2014. It feels like the function of every aspect of the game has been sacrificed to try to make things look "cool".

And since I'm talking about the appearance of the game. It looks horrible. Why is everything on the screen black and grey? Did someone at the studio decide that the colorful blues, golds, and reds of DOTP 2014 were too pleasant to look at? The whole design of the in-game interface is not only far less convenient and poorly laid out, but also just plain irritating to look at. Are me and my opponent playing MTG in some dystopian sci-fi future where joy is illegal?

But so far I've been talking about the interface, gameplay functionality, and apperance of the game; "what about the actual card game?", you excitedly ask.

Unfortunately its just not worth it. I continuously feel as though Im playing the sealed gameplay mode of DOTP 2014... except with less interesting cards. And this is the 2015 campaign gameplay. Sure being able to make my own deck with random cards is nice, but if I wanted to make a crappy deck with crappy cards I would play sealed mode. Which I can already do in DOTP 2014. And if I want to play multiplayer or the campaign, 2014 lets me play with some fun Magic cards from throughout MTG history instead of the boring trash you get to work with in 2015.

In conclusion, if at any given time I was unable to go out and play paper Magic with people in person, I would play DOTP 2014. If I was unable to play DOTP 2014, I would play Hearthstone. And if I was forced to play DOTP 2015... I would go read a book.

Learn from my mistake, dont buy this version of DOTP. Dont support their horrible decisions. Hopefully WOTC will seriously rethink their poorly implemented digital business model.

the only thing i disliked about this game is i wasted 10 bucks for it to not work. it loads the first loading screen then cuts out back to your desktop. I've tried everything to fix it by going to into the steam folder and changing the config settings and trying to chainge it to window mode and backing up the files.alot of other people are also having this issue. I don't know what else i can do to fix this issue.

I'm 100% certain that this game is by far the worst DotP game up to this point.They removed 2 vs. 2 multiplayer (the most fun part of the game), added an annoying menu, and even managed to reduce deck diversity with such a limited choice of cards.

To anyone reading this: DON'T BUY THIS GAME. GET MAGIC 2014 AND BE DONE WITH IT!

First of all no one is mentioned how much of a money hog this game is.... Even if you spend just 10 bucks, you still have to pay $1.99 x 14 times to UNLOCK ALL THE CARDS. HOLY ♥♥♥♥. I games liuke Maden, Fifa, NBA 2k is a money hog......Wizards of the Coast took it to the new level with Magic 2015. WTF THEY EXPECT YOU TO PAY AT LEAST 40 DOLLARS TO UNLOCK ALL THE CARDS..... even if you play through the campaign you only unlock about 30% of the cards AT MOST.....thge custom deck build deck bs is ok but holy crap im not spending 40 dollars on A CARD GAME that clerarly does not cost that much to produce.....Sorry wixards of the coast, this game is a let down.

The Good:The visual are far better than its predecessor (in terms of colour scheme). The campaign is somewhat more well thought out and grasping this time around. Slightly lengthier campaign. New cards are pretty well thought out (though sometimes unbalanced).

The Bad:Sometimes unresponsive. Commonly the transitions are slow or laggy (computer exceeds requirements) or generally annoying. Doesn't control as well as 2014. STUCK WITH ONE DECK THROUGH THE ENTIRE CAMPAIGN. You aren't allowed to change the deck after you are forced to hastily pick from certain very unclear options as soon as you start playing. No way of reset as far as I can see.

Closing Statement: Magic 2014 is far better, and well worth the purchase.

Some how each iteration of this game is worse than the previous version. Want to switch decks in single or multiplayer? Well you have to exit put of those modes to change. No more two-headed giant. Planechase still gone. I really can't see springing for the next version of this game unless they really buff it up.
